Whoever said that being clumsy was a bad thing? That person was sadly mistaken because being clumsy has a lot of perks! Get ready to learn why clumsy people have it so great!

1. Battle Scars


Remember the time you accidentally punched yourself in the face and got a black eye? Instead of telling people what really happened, I'm sure you came up with a pretty cool story about how you got in a fight with Mike Tyson because you were both going for the last cookie at the buffet.

2. Free Service


Not many people easily trust you with cutting cakes, lighting candles, or even opening chip bags, so they will usually do the task for you. Don't take any offense to their helpfulness! Instead of putting out whatever fire you would have caused, you are now being given an opportunity to sit back and relax.

3. High Pain Tolerance


Considering you fall at least three times per day and have probably broken several bones within the past year, you need that high pain tolerance in order to get you through life.

4. Pro Choreographer


Your clumsiness has probably resulted in some amazing new dance moves! Wasn't the "Nae-Nae" created when some guy spilled a drink on his lap? No? Well, let's pretend that's what really happened.

5. In Good Company


Trust me when I say that you are not the lone klutz in this world. Take Jennifer Lawrence, for example: she fell up the stairs at the Academy Awards in 2014. There are many clumsy people out there, so keep your head up! Seriously, keep your head up; you don't want to walk into the wall.

6. The Emergency Room is Your Second Home

You basically know all of the nurses in the emergency room at this point.

7. Preparation Nation


No matter where you go or what you're doing, you are always prepared for a stain, cut, fire, or broken leg.

8. Relatable


Just because you're clumsy doesn't mean people like you any less. If anything, they probably find you relatable because who hasn't had an embarrassing fall in their life or set something on fire? We're all a natural klutz at heart, so embrace your clumsiness!

The Battle Between College And My Mental Health

College isn't easy, and I'm afraid I'm not going to make it at the rate my mental health is going.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?
